I have no idea why I let myself get sucked into this horse **** with fat
ass Dennis Dennison. THE bottom line is that Dennis thinks he is a
drummer yet he has ZERO gigs. This will be the last you see me comment
about this loser again. I actually have a life. I think the fact that
everyone has seen...

I've been doing some research on this and I was just curious what the
health experts here think about the risks of a woman in good health
getting pregnant after 40. At what point are the risks so great it's not
a good idea?

I'm a ****ty sleeper and I always have been. I tend towards getting
4-5 hours/night during the week, and 10 or so on one weekend day. My
problems a

- staying asleep.
Every now and then I get near total insomnia for a week or so.

It's unfair to claim that George W. Bush is the worst president of all
time. He's merely the fifth worst, behind four other Oval Officers
whose policies were even more disastrous: James Buchanan, Andrew
Johnson, Richard M. Nixon and...

So, somebody tell me what the hell is going on? I'm starting to feel like it's
going to be a colossal waste of time, and I'll be here posting a year from now
about how I can now squat two plates, run for 3 hours straight, and STILL weigh
160 and wear a size 12!
Actually there has been change in...

My wife has been working out with me for 6 months. In some exercises, she
has made steady progress, meaning strength gains. In others, she is
basically doing the same weight or only a bit more than she did when we
started. I try to push her harder, to encourage her to add more resistance
but she...

Obviously, I've not been on much lately. Just can't take Bill I guess. I
wish he were local so I could "visit" him in person. So for now, I'm out.
I'll check back later maybe.
Anyway, take care. It's been nice hanging out with everybody here. We've
had some great times.

DRS, you keep quoting me in your sig file and it's really kind of funny
because I am quite sure you don't actually admire my wisdom and seek to
share it. I think you need to either figure out what I mean by that or
explain to me why you think it's so ridiculous.
When I was very fat with sore...

So I just now started squatting without any crutches. What I noticed
immediately was how much more I have to support myself. Ie my hips moving
from side to side when starting to go up etc.
What I'm wondering about primarily though is why I seem to get stuck on the
way up after I've passed...

I got into a discussion about the limits and extremes of human intelligence
and athlethic ability or strength. The general argument goes something like
this.
Whatever super nerds exists out there, they generally have bodies to match.
They are not strong or athletic. And this is somehow a result...

U.S. has committed $15 million and already being called 'stingy'. France has

I have surfed around looking at HST and it sounds like good stuff but I
can't seem to grasp just what the jist of it is.
I am not one for real complicated routines and cycles. If that is what it
is maybe it just isn't for me. I'm not a complete dumbass or anything but
maybe a little lazy when...

Hi all,
I'm new to the group. I have a lot of pretty good weight lifting books and
they help with some pretty good excercises but they don't really break it
down for particular body types.
I'm a big guy to start and have been doing light to med. weight with many
reps lifting for about 5 months. My...
